PERU - The Con Game
Doble juego

As President Fujimori gets ready to skip, bribe revelations are updated regularly, and everybody's looking for an angle in tough times. Film buff Fabrizio Aguilar won't work for his father or on a TV soap, but will make a porno to finance his dream script for Madonna; his pianist-wannabe wife sells clothes on the side, an accountant drives a cab, a divorcée needs to sell that apartment—and then wheeler-dealer Fernando Cayo shows up. But he never seems to have any cash. Freewheeling change of pace from the director of COURAGE [99 fest].

Mientras que el presidente Fujimori se prepara para huirse, hay cada día más revelaciones de soborno y todos buscan cómo sobrevivir los tiempos difíciles. El aficionado de cine Fabrizio Aguilar no trabajará para su padre o en una telenovela, pero sí hará un porno para financiar el guión de sus sueños para Madonna; su esposa, que quiere ser pianista, tiene un negocio adicional vendiendo ropa, un contador maneja un taxi, una mujer divorciada necesita vender su apartamento —y luego llega el vivo Fernando Cayo. Un cambio de ritmo para el director de CORAJE [Festival 99].
